Gossip: Mariah Carey, Nick Cannon
A conversation between Carey and a nurse about drinking Guinness stout to improve milk flow while breast-feeding resulted in a visit from child protective services officials.
Child protective services officials in Los Angeles paid Mariah Carey and Nick Cannon a visit at the hospital shortly after the recent birth of their twins, said RadarOnline.com.
